Example sentences for: desmuslin
How can you use “desmuslin” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Electron microscopic analysis shows that desmuslin colocalizes with desmin, another muscle IF protein.
DNA samples isolated from 71 dystrophic and myopathic patients (as described in Table 2) were analyzed by direct sequencing to determine whether the phenotype was the result of a desmuslin mutation.
DAPC: Dystrophin-associated protein complex; DMN: Desmuslin, SNP: Single-nucleotide polymorphism; IF: Intermediate filament
As several IF proteins, including desmin, have been implicated in human genetic disorders such as dominant and recessive congenital and adult onset myopathies [ 15, 16, 17, 18], desmuslin becomes a candidate to be involved in myopathies as well.
This degree of variability may reflect a redundancy of desmuslin at the Z-line where other IF proteins with potentially overlapping functions are located [ 21].
